Charitable Giving
Canadians are known worldwide as compassionate people, who give generously to charities and humanitarian organizations. In fact, federal and provincial budgets contain tax incentives to encourage charitable giving by Canadians, both personally and through businesses. Given that there are over 86,000* registered charities in Canada, there has never been a better time for private and corporate citizens to include large gifts as part of their tax, financial and estate plan.
